Chapter 224
Startled by the pomp, Arabella quickly looked sideways at Kenneth beside her and whispered, "Just tell them to go elsewhere..."
Kenneth smirked. "Mrs. Lucero, hold your head high and your back straight. After all, you are their boss's lady."
Hearing this, Arabella wanted to kick him.
At this time, Kenneth directly picked her up.
Arabella didn't expect him to pick her up in front of all these people. As she twined her arms around his neck, she heard those staff giggling, and then her ears quickly turned a little red. "Mr. Lucero, what are you doing?"
She weighed about 100 pounds, so Kenneth could easily hold her in his strong arms. As he walked with firm steps on the red carpet, he smiled in a low voice. "That's OK if you don't like to hold your head high and your back straight. Mrs. Lucero, you can hide in my arms if you are shy."
Arabella's eyes revealed a surge of affection. she was really embarrassed, so she simply put her face against his chest and let him hold her all the way.
At this time, the president's elevator door opened. They entered the elevator and then were out of sight.
Watching this scene, Stephany felt as if a sharp knife was stabbed into her heart, and it kept stirring inside, making her jealous and hateful.
How could Kenneth spoil Arabella like this?
Kenneth should be holding her instead.
Stephany quickly ran forward to chase Kenneth.
But soon someone stopped her. "Miss, you can't go inside. Mr. Lucero has taken Mrs. Lucero to the top floor to celebrate her birthday."
"Miss, please leave immediately, or we'll ask the security guards to throw you out."
At this moment, Seth and Caitlin came out. They pulled Stephany aside and kept apologizing with a smile, "Sorry. You don't have to throw us out. We are leaving now. Stephany, let's go." They took Stephany away.
Kenneth took Arabella to the top floor and said, "Open the door."
Arabella pushed the door open.
With a snap, the balloon inside burst. Countless gold ribbons and balloons drifted down and some of them fell on Arabella's clothes.
Arabella looked inside in shock. There were clean glass windows around here and she could see the brilliant blue sky and innumerable stars when she looked up. It was decorated for a birthday party and the theme colors were pink and yellow. Girls would sure find this romantic.
Arabella took off the veil on her face and looked around. She was surprised and excited. "Wow, this is beautiful."
Kenneth lazily leaned against the door with both hands in his pants pockets and gazed at Arabella in her pink chiffon dress with her long hair braided on both sides. As she looked up, Kenneth could see her graceful neck and he thought she was even brighter than thousands of stars.
Kenneth walked over and put a garland on her head. "My little princess, do you like this place?"
Arabella turned to look at him and nodded vigorously. Then she tiptoed up and kissed him on the lips. "I love it. Thank you, Mr. Lucero."
Kenneth wrapped his arms around her slender waist. "Great, keep this going. I will make you happier, and then you should give me more rewards for what I did."
What? Arabella recalled that Aurora had told her before that men's hospitality was a warming up for the evening. On Valentine's Day, hotel rooms sold best, rather than gifts.
Hearing Kenneth's words, Arabella flushed with embarrassment. And it was only at this moment that she really appreciated Aurora's sharp view.
